Relationship Note on Delilah
Lady Delilah uas taken me on a her protege. I am grateful that such a well respected and knowledgable person has judged me capable enough to be my patron. I have also joined the Scholars and become an Adept, Lady Deliliah setting me some interesting questions to prove that I can find knowledge in the stacks. Even if I did find it everywhere but. I need to remember that the books I seek will be probably be there, before I methaphorically run to every *other* library I know to check.

I have been to my first convocation of the faith since arriving in Arx. I suspect that I did not manage to sell myself well, because selling oneself requires that you do something other than sit there and listen. Unfortunately, I was nervous to be in the company of the senior members of our faith for the first time, and have come to realise how little I know about what is going on in the wider world as a whole. Thinking on the matter, I do not think it would have been wise for me to offer opinions that that which I do not know, and I am still not sure that to not speak was an incorrect decision.
I will endevour to find out more about the matters affecting the faith in the wider world for the next convocation, that I might be able to at least have an idea of what is being discussed beyond what is said, and who the people being mentioned are.

I have finally finished compiling the research on my investigation into the Canticle of the Dawn. I say finally, but really this journal is being written several days after the fact. What we found out from our research was ...
No, I'm not going to be making it that easy. Come find me if you want to find out more about that.
Lord Halfshav has already provided me with insight into how to proceed with this, and I know just the Lady to talk to about it.

I have spoken with a number of people about my investigation, it turns out that I get a lot more offers of assistance than people actually assisting. Though I am being overly harsh, it is more that those I have asked at actually quite busy, which is something I feel that I should be. I do hope that I will not be upsetting my surperiors if I continue with this investigation into the canticle, and I will continue to seek out support in the following weeks.

A task.
I have been approached as a Godsword to help a man who I will not be naming deal with his problems. He is suffering from a lingering guilt over actions that have played a small part in tearing his family apart. I need to think on how to handle this. He has done enough reflecting on it, but needs some form of closure. A personal penance might be suitable, not because he needs to repent, but because he needs a way to know that he has done so, for himself. I shall think more upon the problems he is facing, and maybe speak to my superiors and peers to see what they think.

It has been a while since I wrote a journal entry. I need to make sure that my pages are not left blank, and get into the practice of updating it with my thoughts. I must confess, since I have come to ArX I find myself at a loss a lot of the time. Sure, I have gotten myself involved in assisting with dipolomacy in the mountains, and am performing an investigation regarding the canticle of the dawn (more on that in a later entry), but I am yet to find a purpose. I find myself wondering aimlessly around this great city, and just performing my duties without any sense of direction. I have come from having a purpose, the one tasked with helping the village in its day to day spiritial and physical life, to being one of many within a system, and that worries me. Had I so defined myself by my role as Seraph that now I have no identity?

Today I went to to the training hall to see what skilled combatants look like. What I found... was someone throwing pies. Well, it was different for sure. Eventually I did get to see a skillful display between two combatants, but the area was too crowded for me to stick around. I am not used to being surrounded by so many noisy people. I hope the war of the berries goes well. I still keep thinking of people just throwing fruit at each other. The idea makes me laugh. I wonder if Petrichor will approve.

So a task that I am preparing for is the one of researching the Canticle of the Dawn. I have spoken with Delilah regarding the exploration of ruins, Princess Reese has offered me her assistance. The canticle explains out history, and it used to be common among the faith. Why did we stop singing it? Why do we only know of the first verse? Such mysteries vex me, expecially when they lead to a prayer.

So this is Arx. A place of hustle and bustle. Of great buildings. Of run down hovels. Of places serving tea... I sit here in Bold Expressions writing my first entry since arriving in Arx. It has taken me longer than it should to write, really, but I got caught up with everything that has happened. I spent the majority of my first week preaching sermons to military types on behalf of the faith, which was different, but not so different that it was a great change to a regular sermon. I've met my cousin Sparte, and his partner in troublemaking Rinel, both of them seems like decent people, despite the troubles they have been in. I have met nobles, explorers, scholars, commoners and even princesses. I have learnt of the Triad of the Lost, at least, more than I knew before, and of the Canticle of the Dawn, which I am now persuing the missing verses of.
I do have a decision to make however. Do I tie myself more closing with the scholars, whom I know so many of, or do I try to spread myself out and make sure that I am able to serve as many people as possible, by expanding my circle, maybe with the Inquisition? I should meet with them and find out more.
After this tea, of course.

Please note that the scholars may take some time preparing your journal for others to read.
